TIGERS UPSET DOPE AND WIN MEET 62-47
Annual Missouri Contest On MeCook Saturday Smashes All-Victorious Hopes
K. U. DROPPED 3 SURE EVENTS
Weakened by Mile. Patterson and Edwards Fail to Grab Half and 2-Mile as Doped.
In a track meet which proved just how utterly and completely Old Man Dope can be upset, Missouri defeated Kansas Saturday afternoon 62 to 47. The best majority given the Tigers by their most ardent supporters was a 5-point lead. Kansas lost by 15 points.
This was the first athletic victory outside of one basket-ball game that Missouri has won over Kansas this year. The Jayhawkers, however, put a spirited and game fight under losing circumstances. Manager Hamilton said this morning, "It hurt me to lose the meet, since the athletes had worked so hard for it, but when I saw how all of the boys fought Saturday, fought on after everything looked unfavorable, and when I saw how the Jayhawker roots stood behind their team, even when they were losing, I did not feel so bad after all."
The unexpected Tiger points, the races that upset dpe, were the 220 yard dash, the half mile, and the two mile. Before the meet these had been counted as sure Kansas points, but partly threw in the Texas touchdown Missouri's unexpected strength, the Tigers took them and won the meet.
The feature race of the afternoon, as far as time was concerned, was the two mile which Wickham of Missouri won in the fast time of 10. 4-5. Considering the bad condition of the track on the south end of McCook the time set up by this athlete was nothing short of wonderful.
The relay race proved the most exciting and interesting contest of the whole afternoon. Davis and Breckner started the race for the Jayhawkers and the Tigers and at the end of their quarter-mile there was not two feet separating the runners. Murphy, running second for Missouri, gained a slight lead at the start for the Tigers, but Cissna soon made up this gap and these two also finished equal.
Ross ran third for Kansas and practically won the race for the home team when he gained a four-yard lead on Hupp, the Missouri entry. Black, the last Kansas man, picked up this lead and sprinted around the track to score first. The Souri runner, soon caught Black and ample perfect silence passed him.
Within 100 yards of the finish,
however, Black, by a wonderful
sprint, caught up with the Tiger
crack and in a neck and neck race
down the finish lane finished first by
two vards.

BARGAIN WEEK FOR KANSAN ON TODAY
Subscriptions At $2.00 Rate
Accepted For This
Week Only
margain week for the University Daily Kansan, the last chance to subscribe for next year's paper at the old subscription price, $2.00, started this morning. The Summer Session Kansan is included in this price, but they must be in at the office not later than next Saturday, May 24.
The first person to accept this reduced offer was Miss Hearty Brown an instructor in the English department. She is having the Summer Session Kansan sent to East Lansing, Michigan, and will have the daily delivered to her Lawrence address next year. Burton P. Sears, living at 225 E Erie street, Chicago, was the first one of our mail subscribers to send in a check for next year. A coupon is printed in another part of the paper which may be used by all who wish to subscribe. Remittances should be made payable to the University Daily Kansan.
A special offer is being made to all clubs of ten subscribers that are sent in at the same time. Besides receiving the Summer Session Kansan delivered at any address and the Daily Kansan until June 1, 1914, all who subscribe for ten copies before next Saturday will receive a bound volume of the paper since it became a daily. The volume will contain copies of the Kansan from January 1912 until the end of the present semester, bound in fashion with a marble pulp board cover. Fraternities and clubs will no doubt be interested in this proposition because a bound record of University events since the middle of last year is something that will appeal to all permanent organizations at the University.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 19, 1913.
All ten Kansans need not necessarily be delivered at one address next year. Seniors who desire the school paper next year and students may go in together to get the bound volume for the fraternity house. The subscriptions must be sent to the office together however, and they must all be paid in advance. The bound volume will be delivered as soon as the fraternity is as soon as they can be finished after the last issue of the year is printed. Arrangements can be made at the office for the delivery of this volume for fraternities that will not be open during the summer session.
TEMPLIN PARTY FOR CARRUTH DELIGHTFUI
The garden party given in honor of vice-chancellor and Mrs. Carruth on Saturday evening, at the home of Dean and Mrs. Templin is described by those present as an unusual success.
The Templin garden with its flower-bordered walks and springs of running water was probably the most admired spot in the whole garden scheme, which was delightfully carried out in all the decorations.
Dr. F. A. Wilber, formerly Westminster minister pastor at the University and the father of Allen Wilber a senior in the College, has just accepted a call to the pulpit of the Nelion Presbyterian church of Columbus. Ohio
While the indoor plan was quite as well arranged as the garden, the guests were charmed with the informality of the outdoor arrangement which was the special feature of the party.
DR. WILBER ACCEPTS
    OHIO PASTORATE
Students and alumni will miss Dr Wilber.
WYOMING UNIVERSITY GETS MISS MINTYRE

Miss McIntyre is the seventh faculty member to announce departure from K. U. The others are Prof William H. Hillarr, vice-chancellor, Dean Charles H. Johnston, Prof Robert Kennedy Drunce, D. F. P Chillingworth, Prof H. Louis Jackson, and Prof F. W. Bushong.
TEN ARE OUT FOR ESSAY CONTEST PRIZES
Applied Christianity Work This Year Superior--- Prof. O'Leary
That the Applied Christianity essay contest has aroused more interest this year than last is shown by the fact that ten papers were submitted, the 15th, when the contest closed, against 6 last year.
According to Professor O'Leary the papers have so far exceeded all expectations. "I have read most of the papers and am surprised at the seriousness and faithful work that has resulted from this contest," he says. "I have read a great many papers and essays in college contests but have never seen more substantial and credible work than has resulted in these. Several of the essays contain brilliant passages; in fact, are far superior to the work of the average college student."
The prizes total $250 in the sums of $100, $75, $50, and $25. The committee governing the contest, Professors Carruth, Wilcox, Billings, Boynton, and O'Leary will announce the result at commencement.
UNIVERSITY REPRESENTED
AT SUFFRAGE MEET
In the big two-day meet of Kansas suffragists in Lawrence today and tomorrow the University takes a leading part.
Professor Carruth will deliver an address of welcome, the Violet quartet will sing, and "Billy" Morgan known Kansu alumni, will speak.
In addition Dr. Alberta Corbin will talk Tuesday on "The College Girl and Citizenship," and Clara Powell will furnish music.
Miss Helen Hershberger, a freshman in the College, has returned from a short visit at Manhattan.
Marie Whittt, a senior in the College, will return from Topeka today, where she spent the weekend.
At last a practical plan for the reduction of the high cost of living has been devised. A student of the economics department is its originator, and while it lowers the cost of but one article of diet, the student hopes to carry his investigations further and work many radical changes in the existing economic order of things.
ANOTHER PROFESSOR LEAVES----MORE MONEY
Eggs is the article of food, and hens the objects of the experiment. The high price of eggs in mid-winter are well-known and much-lamented fact.
Dr. F, P. Chillingworth, assistant professor in physiology of the medical school at Rosedale and here, has accepted a position at a salary of $2600 a year as associate professor of the medical department of Tulane College.
Dr. F. P. Chillingworth Goes to Tulane With $1000 Increase
With this in mind the student commenced his experiments. After considerable trouble he evolved a plan, which is this:
In the winter when the chilly blasts whip around the chicken house and the snow is on the ground, the instincts of the hen, that make her lay
Dr. Chillingworth is a graduate of Yale in 07 and was an assistant in the medical department there before coming to Kansas.
His reason for leaving the University is that Tulane will increase his salary $1,000 over what he is getting here.

TWENHOFEL IN CHAPEL
ON JAMES D. DANA
Professor Twenhofel of the geology department who is to speak in chapel tomorrow, said this morning that he did not know what his subject would be, for he had not thought about it yet.
However, when he was told that some sixteen or eighteen prospective hearers would be sadly disappointed if they did not find his subject announced in the Daily Kansan tonight, he was moved to action and announced the subject of his talk in chapel tomorrow morning as "James D. Dana, America's Foremost Geologist."
In the morning the hen awakens and sees the mural decorations. Thinking it is spring, she immediately lays an egg.
Miss Josephine Delongy and Miss Hazel Hall of Mena, Arkansas, are the guests of Mrs. Young at the Sigma Nu house.
The student tried to further fool the hens by painting gorgeous green verdure, rippling brooks, and little birds, but says that the plain peacreen color works just as well and is much cheaper.
Why the hen allows herself to be hoodwinked the student does not pretend to know. Professor Rogers, of the psychology department, can offer no solution, for he affirms that he has had little experience with chickens and does not pretend to understand them.
SENIOR MEMORIAL ISN'T
DEAD, SAYS WHITNEY
"It isn't dead at all," says Elmer Whitney, president of the senior class, in discussing the plan of the seniors to erect a memorial arch at the entrance to the campus on Oread avenue.
"The committee has been working on the plans and has them just nearly completed. A class meeting will be held in the near future at which time all details, assessments and specific plans will be decided upon."
TO BOOST MILL TAX AND STUDENT UNION
Dodd Gives Out Statten of His Aims During Coming Year
Leslie A. Dodd, new president of the Men's Student Council, today made public the following statement in regard to his policy during the coming year:
"The Student Council has two big projects on hand which it will endeavor to work out during the coming year. The first is a plan for a Student Union and the second is the fight for a Mill Tax.
"A plan for a Student Union is being worked out. The Union will be organized as soon as possible, either this spring or at the beginning of the next school year. The plan is to provide club rooms for students which can be used as a common meeting and loafing place.
"The fight for a Mill Tax will be carried on actively during the coming year although the Legislature does not meet during that time. The first and most important thing to do is to advertise the University over the state and to make the people realize its importance and its needs of a dependable source of income. While a large part of the people know in a general way what University is and what their development is, the greater part of them have never given the Mill Tax any serious consideration. They do not know what the Mill Tax is and are instinctively against it because it means what looks like a financial loss to them.
"Such a lounging place would foster a better school spirit and would bring the men of the University into closer touch with each other. This is the first and one of the most important steps in building a school that should be of vital reason to every student of the University.
"It will be the Student Council's purpose during the coming year to try to make the people of the state understand the needs of the University and to show them that they will be benefited by its being properly developed."
O SENIOR PLAY
Tradition Broken—And Constance McCammon Gives Four Reasons Why
There will be no senior play this year.
After no one in the University accepted the offer of $50 for the best senior play, and after Constance McCammon, director, put up $50 of her own money to get a royalty play "At Yale," the seniors failed to back the play last week with enough pledges to insure expenses, and the traditional show died an ennuier death.
Miss McCammon may be able to vet part of her money refunded.
Miss Constance McCammon, director, gives what she thinks to be the main reasons for this:
Why didn't more men try out fo the senior play?
Too many students have cases. Too hard!
Not dramatically inclined.
"Too busy."
The real res it was 62-47 instead of 67-42.
THE SCORE WAS
62-47, THANK YOU

DUNCAN TO SEVER CONNECTION WITH K. U.
Resignation of Head of Industrial Research Department Is In
HE RECOMMENDS WEIDLEIN
Kansas University Graduate Favored as His Successor—Industrial Department to Stay Here
dr. Robert Kennedy Duncan, director of the Industrial Research Department, will sever his connection to the university at the end of the present school year.
His resignation is in the hands of the Chancellor, but has not been acted upon by the Board of Regents, and no action will be taken until the recently-created Board of Administration takes control in July. The new half-million dollar research building at Pittsburgh, of which Dr. Duncan is also the director, will consume his entire time in the future.
Dr. Duncan recommends the appointment of Edward Weidlein as his successor. Chancellor Strong has approved the plan, but nothing will be definitely decided until the new board assumes office.
Weidlein graduated from Kansas in 1909, and at present, in conjunction with Gilbert Braugh, is working in a fellowship which has as its objective the training of impaired method for the utilization of low-grade copper ores.
There is no foundation for the assumption that the Research department in the University will be discontinued. At present the University furnishes space and apparatus, and the company granting the fellowship pays the salaries of the fellows, and it is probable that the new board will use this same program. The Research department and guaranteed its continuation by making tentative and official plans for rots operation.
The fellowship of Bragg and Weidlein is a Kansas fellship, but the men are working under Duncan at Pittsburg at the present time because of the easy access to material. The greater part of the work has been done at Kansas and will be completed here. E. C. Rhodes, who is worked on the former of our father oil into a cooking grease, and R. P. Rose, who is working to find utilization of leather scrap, will remain here.
The Karpei fellowship, held by A. J. Weith, F. P. Brock, and L. V. Redman, having for its object the application and utilization of Redmanite, a discovery of Redman's, expires July 1. The fellowship may be continued,—probably will be, but in case it is not the three men will probble to go to Pittsburgh, where they have offered positions, by Dr. Duncan. The Fels fellowship, by Professor Bushong and I. W. Humphrey, expires the first of next month, when the two men will leave for Pittsburg.
